Back in high school my friend Chris and I both worked at an ice cream store. I worked there longer than he did so I had the privilege of delegating any task that I didn’t want to do to him. One hot summer day I was told that we had to mow the grass out front. I waited for Chris to get to work and asked him to do it. While he was out front baking in the sun I decided to straighten out our hot dog condiment section. This is when I noticed that he had left his giant cup of root beer on the counter next to me. I took the tray of jalapeño peppers and poured a good quarter cup of the juice into his cup and swirled it around. When he finished up outside he came back in all hot and sweaty and headed straight for his drink. He took a huge mouthful… paused… then ran to the sink and spit it out. Luckily there were no customers in the store at that moment to hear all of the colorful words he used as he turned around to face me.

Discussion ¬

That’s hilarious!
My friends and I aren’t that mean to each other though… Although, I have to say it is very fun to do things like that to good friends (cause you know they won’t hate you for long) – Such as watching them get drawn on while passed out drunk…
Anyways…
Why’s Biff holding his head like he’s got an brain-freeze?

I was like that with my friends….
…in middle school.
Once my friend went to the window and put his face inches from it and said “Ryan! Lets look out the window!” I came up to him and just slammed his face into it.
Lol. Good times. I couldn’t stop laughing.
So, Chris and Chris, eh? Must have been fun times.

Jalapenos and rootbeer, yeeesh. Got one better for you though. About 3 years ago on April Fools, my two brothers, me, and my father were cutting dead limbs out of trees at my great aunt Leafy’s (yes obvious joke there) house. I had just opened a can of Pepsi and had taken a couple of sips when my dad yelled at me to get back to work. Twenty minutes later I managed to get back to my drink and took a couple of huge gulps ( I get hot quick when I’m working) before I realized there was something wrong with my soda. Horribly wrong. I threw up all over my shoes and looked up to see my baby brother Jeremiah laughing his ass off. The little mutant had dumped out almost all of my Pepsi and replaced it with straight vinegar.
And the worst part of was that my aunt Leafy was in on it!

OTOH, jalapeño beer can be very refreshing indeed. There’s a micro-brewery in Ft. Collins, CO, that makes a wonderful jalapeño-flavored beer. It’s not stright-up hot-pepper juice, but there’s a nice flavor that hovers in the background.

In high school I went to the steak ‘n shake with my brother and a few friends, and realized I forgot my wallet. My brother offered to pay for me if I took one of the hot peppers from the hot sauce dispenser and ate it. We quickly found out that the peppers were not meant to be eaten straight; they were simply too hot. My taste buds were damaged and I couldn’t taste anything for a few days.

dunno if its the same stuff MaskedMan mentioned, my friend bought a 6 pack of ‘chili beer’ once. adn let me warn you, that stuff should only be consumed on a dare! and lets hope your the one daring someone else to drink it. Ive never taken a sip of anything and immediately started sweating before. The friend who bought it ended up drinking 3 of them since me and my other friend refused to finish ours.

He was a sad little panda during all that, and i still think theres a bottle or two in the fridge…. after about 3 months.

I don’t *think* that micro-brew sells outside of the state of Colorado, but I might be wrong. Probably not the same stuff, though, unless you’re hyper-sensitive to the peppers… the brew I had was hot, but there was far more “beer” than “hot.”

But then again, I eat the hot Mazeta jalapeño straight from the jar, like popcorn. So maybe I’m not the best one to say…

I put wasabi in my stir fry that my wife and I make. Only in mine, so I mix it in afterwards. Invariably, there is always a bit that isn’t mixed in well and I have a moment where I sorta flip out, but then I’m ok again, until I find the next hot pocket in my stir fry.

Also, when I was a friends overnight birthday party growing up they gave us all a box of red hot gobstoppers, and over the course of the evening, night, and next day I ate the whole box. Food was bland for a week.

Ha, my co-workers and I do this all the time. I work at subway, and we are welcome to help ourselves to as much soda as we can drink. At least once a shift, someone will put vinegar into someone’s drink, and they’ll spit it out. We often just sniff our drinks to make sure it hasn’t been vinegared. One day, i poured probably a half-cup of salt into my friend’s drink. He smelled it, okayed it, and gulped it down, and threw up. It was fantastic.

Back in the early 90′s I had a friend who made homemade wine. As an experiment, he tried several different fruits, and one was a bottle of jalapeño wine. It was horrid. it tasted like watered-down jalapeño Tabasco sauce mixed with honey. The high alcohol content made it burn your mouth even worse. That didn’t stop my alcoholic friends from downing he whole bottle, though.

Actually, jalapeno pepper rootbeer might not be -that- bad. I make a jalapeno mint limeade drink and it is pretty good, well at least good enough that I keep making it. *ponder* I might actually try it with rootbeer instead of limeade.

I did something similar to this when I was working at a Sheetz Convenience Store. We had just gotten a Barista Coffee section added, and we had a bunch of flavoring that we added to Iced Coffee drinks.

One day, when I was working a night shift, I played a prank on one of my co-workers by swiping his drink when he was busy, adding a few pumps of Hazelnut flavoring to it, then put it back. It was worth a laugh, but needless to say, it didn’t go over too well with him.

Back in High School I in our ultimate frisbee club and we’d play after school on fridays.

There was an ongoing dare for anyone to drink a gallon of milk in a hour (which I later found out if near impossible) add that to the boiling hot weather in Chico and you get puking high school kids throwing discs at each other.

I need to ramp up the cruelty level on my pranks. They’ve become literally watered down.
A visiting friend left their barely touched can of coke in an obvious location, and was distracted long enough for me to fill another can with water and switch them. *sigh*

I used to have sushi or other Japanese food for lunch and i would always get mooched off of. One time a friend of mine was being really annoying about it and finally convinced me 2 make him an onigiri(a type of Japanese food that is a triangular ball of rice wrapped in seaweed with some sort of ingredient on the inside). Well that weekend me and my friend were making him that nice onigiri except… we filled it with lots of wasabi. When we gave it to him he shoved half of in his mouth and after a second started screaming and cursing. He then gave the rest to a friend of his who had forgotten his lunch and was really hungry and told him to “avoid the green parts”. This friend somehow failed to avoid the green parts and there was more screaming and colorful language.

hehehe, actually… the jalapeno root beer isn’t bad… Let’s just say that I am mildly obsessed with spicy food, and I had some people that weren’t privy to that info play the jalapeno juice prank on my root beer. I can never tell you how satisfying it is to turn a prank around and drink it all with a smile on your face. The looks are worth paying to see.
Also, I’ll have to try making the wasabi onigiri. They sound tasty. ;]
